- thousand riders a day. including 96 -thousand who travel across the bay in the trans bay tube during peak commute hours. that's 50- percent more commuters than in 1997 -- when the last bart strike happened. because of that, a bigger impact would be expected if there is a strike this time. the m-t-c is hoping a lot of people can work from home. and if not officials are encouraging car pooling and transportation agencies will be reimbursed to use extra buses and ferries. one alternative bart riders can use to get around is casual carpooling. that's where people line up to get into strangers cars to get across the bay. the program runs between the east bay and downtown san francisco. casual carpooling tends to get more popular during emergencies. transit officials say it helps ease congestion and saves money. and commuters who already use the ferry service can expect boats to be at full capacity. especially during peak commute times. the san francisco bay ferry service will add three additional vessels to their fleet which will allow them to carry 30-thousand additional passengers per day.
